McKesson HR are some of the most egotistical, power hungry, uneducated, unethical, unprofessional people I've ever worked with. In my capacity as a manager, I've seen so many terrific employees walked out the door. The HR staff I've had the pleasure... — read more 

The whole software QA process was a joke after SG was let go. The QA managers left at this point are a waste of space and one of them comes and goes as she pleases, yet somehow survives every RIF. And they are not willing to fight for fixing the bugs... — read more 

Just doing enough to get by at this point, can't trust anything from management anymore and our software really does s---.

I was part of last Wednesday's RIF in EIS. Happy to go. Was hoping to be part of it. Have been disgusted with McK since Pesce won power struggle for Paragon. Was hoping to make it two more years to 65 but this is good. Feel bad for those who are... — read more 

No one even mentions Celesio...what they thought would make them 'global' and a world player. They spent (spend) billions to buy and sustain an international company, just to make their revenues higher so they can creep up on Fortune 500 (egomaniacal... — read more 

EIS could not even be added for free in its current state, it could not be included in a bundled deal. McK and it's poor handling of the situation are to blame for that, I give you that as the products had promise and smart individual contributors. I... — read more 

Evidently those NOT laid off got sizeable retention if they are required experts for the AMB product.

As I mentioned earlier this stock, now has a resistance of $120 exactly 1/2 from the high of $240. I would not be surprised if it breaks that resistance as well. Nothing to hold against!!!

Once severance payouts start, will they end if I get a new job?

HISTALK2.com just posted about the earnings, the layoff and the email fiasco complete with a link to the email thread on this site. PARAGON clients listen up.....

Paragon laboratory and ancillaries product manager and business analyst were let go. With that, McKesson is now officially out of the lab and diagnostic imaging business.

We get to have pizza next week with the exec who made the decision to replace American citizen employees with labour from India. This Jim is much, much worse than the last one.

Stock just dropped 20. You officially reached an all time low this year...financially, operationally and morally. Congratulations! I hope you're proud of yourselves.

I have heard from reliable sources that West Coast layoffs (i.e., 1 Post) are supposed to occur sometime in early 2017. On the happy note, the holidays are just around the corner. Most HR departments don't like to lay people off during the holiday... — read more

Does anyone know if Wheeling, Illinois was affected?

I can't believe the River Planning Meeting in Charlotte is still happening this week. It is the biggest waste of time and money. I hope this is the last one.

Historically, McKesson has done a very bad job at RIF or layoffs. Dropping key players and BU's. Sloppy job. I learned in March, just how vindictive and irresponsible this company is. Yes, I'm still here but very aware... Basically, if you are paying... — read more

I've talked to a few folks. Here's the general impression I'm getting (but I haven't talked to everyone, obviously). Those laid-off: "I'm sort of relieved." Those not laid-off: "Sort of wish it had been me..."

Cuts are happening at EIS... ATL, Colorado, Charlotte Some have a short run-out period (2 weeks, but essentially not working after today); some have until March 2017 .

I was laid off on one of the calls today. I'm a Charlotte employee... 2 weeks to find something different, but I think I heard the layoff is effective IMMEDIATELY... It was a lot of information.

Where are the layoffs occurring?

Here is my link to the previous post. https://www.thelayoff.com/t/Jo8bT1Z What now:? Big boys bought options for Friday morning

Some people were invited to a call (calls?) that's going on right now. Apparently some have received a 5 month notice and others have been cut immediately. I think if you're not on the call, you're okay? I didn't get invited to anything, just hearing... — read more
